Barcelona Aquarium is a very nice place to visit, and has the advantage of being open every day of the year. So you can visit exotic lands even when it’s cold outside.<\/p>\n

The different spaces of the aquarium<\/h2>\n

The Oceanarium<\/h3>\n

\nThe oceanarium is without a doubt the most impressive part of the aquarium. The only one of its kind in Europe, it measures 36 metres in diameter, 5 metres in depth, contains nearly 4 million litres of water and is home to a multitude of species, including such impressive examples as bull sharks and grey sharks.<\/p>\n

What makes the oceanarium even more incredible is that you see it through a transparent tunnel. Fish and sharks can be seen not only on either side of the tunnel but also swimming right over your head.\n<\/p>\n

The Mediterranean<\/h3>\n
